Before you start reporting payroll and super information to the ATO as part of Single Touch Payroll, you need to make sure your payroll information meets ATO requirements, and then connect to the ATO.

Step

1 - Check payroll details

2 - Connect to the ATO

You'll need

All your employees' information

Address - including suburb, state and postcode
Valid tax file number

Your company information

ABN
Branch code
Phone number
Address

Do you only have a WPN?
If your business uses a WPN and doesn't have an ABN, you'll need to use a registered tax or BAS agent to process your payroll. If this is not an option for you, contact the ATO to discuss your options.

List of payroll categories that you need to report to the ATO

Check with your advisor if you are unsure about what reportable categories you need to assign.

MYOB account

You'll need an internet connection and to sign in to your MYOB account before you connect to the ATO.

Don't have an MYOB account? Sign in or Register from our website.

Your details, including the business' ABN and (optionally) your registered agent details

Both you and your registered tax or BAS agent will need to go through the connect to ATO steps and:

Add yourself as a person who can declare payroll information as correct and true while processing pays.
Notify the ATO you're using MYOB for Single Touch Payroll reporting.
(Agents only) Add the client in the tax or BAS agent portal.

Get employees connected too!

One optional step to consider is encouraging your employees to set up a myGov account. This is how your employees will access their YTD amounts and end of year summary.
